What two numbers multiply to 162 and add up to 33?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 162 and add up to 33?"

The answer to your question is:

6 and 27

Below we illustrate and prove that 6 and 27 multiply to 162 and add up to 33:

6 × 27 = 162
6 + 27 = 33

Are you asking because you are trying to figure out how to factor the following quadratic equation?

x² + 33x + 162 = 0

If so, the solution to factor the quadratic equation above is:

(x + 6 ) (x + 27)

To summarize, since 6 and 27 multiply to 162 and add up 33, you know that the following is true:

x² + 33x + 162 = (x + 6 ) (x + 27)
